Abstract
Integrating a co-rotating twin-screw extruder in an injection moulding mach ine opens up new perspectives for the direct processing of plastics in the form of raw material components plus additives and/or fillers and/or reinfo rcing materials. This then gives the processor greater freedom during proce ssing and greater flexibility when it comes to improving both the component structure and the quality of the moulded part, as well as demonstrably low er production costs.
